Enter Below Mt. Cha to Write of the Shui Kou City Market: Four-Line Poem
入 茶 山 下 题 水 口 草 市: 绝 句
倚 溪 侵 岭 多 高 树
夸 酒 书 旗 有 小 楼。
惊 起 鸳 鸯 岂 无 恨
一 双 飞 去 却 回 头。
Ru Cha Shan Xia Ti Shui Kou Cao Shi: Jue Ju
Yi xi qin ling duo gao shu
Kua jiu shu qi you xiao lou.
Jing qi yuan yang qi wu hen
Yi shuang fei qu que hui tou.
Enter Below Mt. Cha to Write of the Shui Kou City Market: Four-Line Poem
Many tall trees between a stream and the mountain range
Small stalls have flags with writing about their fine wine.
Startled mandarin duck and drake from a thoughtless passerby
The pair returned together after the people had left.
Notes:
Shui Kou City: Perhaps located in Hunan Province.
